Spot: Lobos
Isla de Lobos
About 3kms off shore of Flag beach lies the uninhabited Island of Lobos with its characteristic vulcano. Directly across from Flag Beach is a beautiful Laguna "La Concha"-the Shell, with a reef at the entrance.
In a good NW swell the wave wraps around the point, peeling away along the reef with a few sections.
In a NW depression wind you can sail straight across from Flag beach and this is also perfect side shore for the wave. Best tide is high tide and the higher the better. At lower tides the reef gets shallow and the wave hollower. Lobos usually only works occasionally in the winter months from November till April. But if you do catch it good, itīs such a beautifull spot to sail.....Further north, right below the vulcano is also a surfing spot with the longest right hander of Europe. On a bigger swell you can see 4 or 5 waves at the same time, peeling their way below the vulcano, each one with a surfer on it.
